Am I the only one who came here today to understand Zahara's story, what a beautiful soul, RIP queen
We are here❤.
No, u r not de only 1
U not alonw
I’m here
❤
I had to come back and watch it again to honor her legacy. Rest in peace Zahara 💔 🕊️
Me too
thats me right now😢
Thats why i came too 😢
I'm right on it, too.
😢😢 me here
The importance of Podcast and chill...let's gather here to celebrate Her life🥲
😢😢
I discovered her music after her death and I’ve playing her songs nonstop. I am Nigerian and don’t even understand the language. A great song is a great song regardless of the language. South Africa lost a great one. RIP Zahara.
Just like myself, Thanks God for this soul, what a wonderful gift for us in this earth preaching and teaching different, we need to keep these amazing teachings from heavens through this beautiful soul
Same here 😢😢....
I so wish to be this special... BT special people don't last in this world.. GOD take them. Rest easy Zahara
Beautiful story, Zahara! Mysriep! You were a special being.
I'm a Ghanaian but i can't go a day without playing her songs😢😢her voice is so inspirational
I liked it when McG realised that Zahara was becoming uncomfortable talking about alcohol. He switched immediately - another skill McG possess y'all🤙🏾
Did u see that......I was impressed MacG is growing up
i dont agree with your observation... i think Zahara put it out there to MacG..... that, why ask her about alcohol, instead of music
Lol not really zahara checked him
@@blezatijolojolo2715 i agree
bull... he didn't handle that proper
I feel like Zahara isn’t given the recognition she deserves✨I have so much respect for her😍
I love Mac he's skill how he manages to get the story out of the person he is interviewing the alcohol question was a bit too early but it got to give the other side of the coin and it makes us aware that you can't believe everything that you read from the media i for one would've loved to know about the SARS story true or false but the interview was quite entertaining for me at least zahara did not work out of the interview big up to you for that
@@janeshangwina6819 very beautiful interview
May Her Soul fly High..😢😢
When i heard the news i remembered one thing " When it's all said and done, what do you want to be remembered as"? A girl next door she said. "A girl that changed lives, A girl whose music inspires and gives hope". And damn you were indeed all that. May your beautiful soul rest in peace Queen❤🩹❤🩹❤🩹
She was gifted and full of life. Will surely remember her like a girl next door❤❤❤
Oh yes a girl next door who changed lives...
So young gifted and black..May your precious soul rest in eternal peace. ❤
RIP Zahara
Hey I never thought she will be gone today, may her soul rest well
Ba mokolatang ba mopatale
Rest in peace Zahara ❤😢, this is the importance of the podcast; to document black history
May her soul rest in peace, we have lost the young vibrant soul
Beautiful podcast 😢she's so professional inher responses 🎉.just watched her funeral on UA-cam. Rest and rise with Christ in Glory❤
Zahara is undoubtedly the most wonderful miracle that has ever happened to South Africa.🙌
A big shout out from North Carolina, Charlotte 🇺🇲
Love from Connecticut
I enjoyed every minute of this episode. With lots of love from Dallas!
Guys nifike kanjani in these places 🥺
Love from Washinton DC
Love from Somali
Zahara redirected Macgee to real issues not Alcohol issues
Quickly 😄😄
It was needed.. there is more to her than that
I loved it! It's doesn't concern me but I'm tired of people who are always judging her about alcohol as if she is a drunkards who can't do anything else.This woman is gifted so it's boring for people who always ask her about alcohol.Most of celebrities are always drinking infront of us but no one say a thing. Let's concentrate on her music and many great things that she has and still archiving. I love her and her music and I buy it all.
I'm so proud of her yazi I smiled when she did that
I'm glad she dd like are we in AA meeting we want to hear about her music Macg was losing the plot nyana there
Am in disbelief!! 😢 This gal was just powerful!! Rest in Peace Zahara, your biggest Zambian 🇿🇲 fan.❤❤
I love the fact she set boundaries for herself in this interview and thanks to MacG for respecting her🙏🙏
Yeessss!!!!!
"I'm a rare breed, you must remember" and she didn't lie.. Love Her!
My baby girl was named Zahara at hospital and I didn't understand but today I understand why. She was born healthy and beautiful but I was going to periods until I gave birth to her which means there was no implantation on my womb. Thank you Lord ngesisipho
I think this interview just showed how good MacG is, it wasn't an easy one but yooh he nailed it 👌
True hey he tried
Dude.. MacG is a Pro
True
I agree,Zahara was difficult, still love her thou
I think if she was signed by Oskido things would have turned out differently, I mean beautiful ❤️
She might still be alive too😢
Sooo true, i respect tht guy.....Oskido❤
11 December 2023 had to come watch to say a final goodbye Zahara what a sad day....hope she knows she was loved by all
I literally get goosebumps when she starts singing... What a gift.
I wouldn't hang around her when I'm drunk, just in case she will sing. There's just too much emotion in that voice, I'd cry
@@mambricanmambisa374 isss too much
I agree with you
And I thought I was the only one🥺she really is a gift❤️
she puts her emotions in everything she does, i really appreciate that. THAT WAS A GREAT INTERVIEW AND I LOVE THAT Y'ALL DIDN'T PRESSURE HER TO ANSWER QUESTIONS SHE DIDNT WANNA ANSWER
Exactly
MacG podcast releases should have public holidays
@@nhlakaniphohlelakazulu5763 exactly, i need to watch them in peace.
She was a real artist! Everything is about passion and emotions. She felt very deep. Loves deeply and hurts deeply.
She was never shallow, Zahara was intelligent and full of wisdom. RIP baby girl
This was a great interview and Zahara got to show us who she really was, a loving, caring and free spirit with an amazing voice. She will be missed. May her soul rest in grace ❤
For sure. May her beautiful soul rest in power😢
I loved her songs with the unique voice, but now I'm broken💔💔RIP Zahara
May her soul rest in peace.I❤ her music
I remember jumping the security fence to watch Zahara koBulawayo in Zimbabwe that was the best risk I've ever taken in my life sorry I couldn't afford the tickets Zahara but after that show my life changed. I genuinely love this womans art. I love you Zahara
U are welcome my dear
@@ibomoloi9026 nden
@@ibomoloi9026 which one is dis one now
You are a GOAT!
I appreciate and respect MacG for taking it easy with the questions on our Legendary Queen. He noticed the humility that Zahara showed him at the beginning of the interview and he decided to take upon the decision to restart the interview. This Podcast is what I live for. Mad Respect bro...
Now that Zahara has passed on this interview is worth gold. RIP Zahara
Seriously😢i downloaded it.. i watch it everyday 🥺 and i learn something new every time i watch it
I love how she managed to make about 95% of the interview about her music. I’m officially in love with this girl.
Zahara is the epitome of "don't judge me from afar" I love how you accommodated her when she indicated that she doesn't like the alcohol questions, it was really getting cringy. Thanks Mabena
Ntinga ntaka ndini ❤️ ndimile apho....
Ntinga ntaka ndini ❤️ ndimile apho....
I pray Zahara heals from the pain she’s carrying 💓
True she's been through a lot yoh and she is soo humble
i said so whilst i was watching the mid part of the interview
Same here hlena. I hope she does too🙏🏽🙏🏽🌹❤❤❤❤❤
Yoh😢😢
Rest in peace Zah❤❤❤🙏🙏
It is with heavy hearts that we mourn the passing of the greatest legend in the history of music in South Africa. The loss of Zahara has left a void in the music industry and in the hearts of his countless fans.
As we come to terms with this profound loss, it is important for us to honor the legacy of Zahara and the impact she has had on the music world. Her contributions have not only shaped the music industry in South Africa but have also inspired and influenced artists and fans around the globe.
In the wake of this tragedy, let us take a moment to remember and celebrate the life and music of Zahara. Her talent, passion, and dedication will continue to inspire generations to come.
As a team, let us extend our deepest condolences to the family, friends, and fans of Zahara. Let us also take this opportunity to reflect on the profound impact that music has on our lives and the world around us.
Lala ngo xolo Bulelwa
It's sad that I have to watch this episode when Zahara is no more 😢 RIP to Zahara
Eish...same here 😢
zahara just taught us to focus on the positive side of the people more than their mistakes and downfalls
True
Exactly... Exactly... Why should we talk about the negatives rather than the positives that brings a smile.. I have learnt too
But we can learn a lesson from their mistakes
Her English accent is just amazing, at some point she sounds like Whoopi Goldberg.
I thought that as well
Exactly
Yeah I can hear bits of Whoopi Goldberg
I'm amazed as well
Come to think of it that true ✌🏾🐐
One of the most important value this podcast offers is having guests tell their stories while they are still alive.
Today we come back to watch this episode again.
Rest in peace Zahara
You came, you saw, you conquered. Thankyou for graciously sharing your gift with us Zahara. Rest Easy.❤
She very emotional ❣️, when they spoke about Robbie Malinga she wanted to cry.. Robbie was one of the best producers in SA
She's so respectful
She does not trust the media at all, her defenses are up
Yes and she's not ok at all💔
Ewe maan
She has been through a lot.i pray that she completely heals.I love her.❤️❤️❤️
“When it comes to vocals , you can never go wrong with me” Zahara is the woman she thinks she is🔥🔥🔥🔥
It is so sad what people that call themselves professionals do to innocent people. She truly was a courageous girl who trusted in God. May God continue to fight ALL HER BATTLES FOR HER, may those who stole from her get their punishment. I cried throughout this interview. She certainly has given me hope after listening to her life story and experiences. May your gifted soul rest in peace. 😭😭😭
I love how she changed her narration of the story very quickly. She just wants to be heard!
I pray for Zahara to heal from whatever is bothering her...I can hear pain now and again 🙏
Ey, she's carrying a lot
I feel like she wasn't open enough about her life except the music part, and
I think mostly it's a loss. She lost her little brother and not long ago, her sister and she even said she passed away just after they both had communicated. The song "Sinda Mphefumulo" bring her so much pain Cos it was her sisters favorite song. I understand better cos yes some people move on very fast but others take time. I lost my brother in 2012,then 2013 my dad. Before that I lost my little sister in 2006,she left me with her little baby. Sometimes I feel so sad and cry., though my gorgeous baby (niece) is 18 years old now.Sadness doesn't come regularly but sometimes, when we talk about them.Life neh😐
@@zetmbonambi4425 I am so sorry for your loss 😪dear,it is so sad that people are judging her on the comment section that,she shoul have not agreed to do the interview if she is not willing to talk about most things and yes I feel like she has not dealt with her brothers loss and now her sister passes away
I also know that feeling...my Dad passed away March this year and I still cannot believe that he is gone,sometimes I find myself dialing his number 😭I don't know how to deal with this...😭😭😭💔
@@heathermbambeni529 Ooh dear, I'm so sorry about your loss and it's still new. It will get better with time. As for refusing an interview, It's not easy to say No to MacG😂😂😂. This guy can put his face straight, look at you straight in your eyes, and assure you that not so many people are watching his podcast, lie😅. Surely he can also promise not to ask a question and do it after 🤣. We know him now.
I HAVE NEVER LOVED THIS WOMAN MORE THAN I DO NOW, THIS INTERVIEW JUST MADE ME LOVE HER 1000 MORE. THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC YOU BLESS US
Awuu Zahara no haughty a sense humour and a happy soul❤
This is why we can not stop the celebrity interviews. Black excellence documented at its very best . Lala ngoxolo Zahara 🕊💔. #RipZahara
I love the way she handled the alcohol question.. So eloquently.. Basically what she is trying to say is her narrative is MUSIC.. thats it.. ❣️❣️❣️
Yho Zahara is very straightforward. She doesn’t care who u are, a no is a no to her. Wow, shes a star indeed.
Mac G i love how you understood her, and u were easy on the questions when you saw shes not about the media life. Welldone, it was a difficult interview but a phenomenal one👏🏽
MacG is seriously documenting Black History. Imagine all the fallen legends he has interviewed: Kuli Roberts & Chilli M come to mind. #RIPZahara
Chill M, l didn't know ...l used to like him..sad
@@dineosibiya2123 Yah he went a few years back,proper legend he was
This one was an angel and i keep on saying it..born without a placenta..came to inspire and heal ..the music was deep and outstanding.What a special girl
It wasn't easy for MacG to interview Zahara.
honestly.. yoh hes good shame
Yeah I am starting to believe Zodwa Wabantu about why she feels a certain way about Zahara
@@kaymilan3928 😂🤣😂😂 why
@@kaymilan3928 what did Zodwa say she feel about Zahara😂?
Coz he doesn't understand Xhosa.... Amongst other things, she's private as well.
Since we don't have time to watch tv and cancelled our Dstv subscriptions years ago, we'll just keep waiting for thursdays to watch it on youtube.
Lol me and you both
Who's here after hearing about her passing?
RIP our Loliweeee!
💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
So poetic & profound. Indeed she was gifted. I have learned the difference between talented & gifted from her. Some of the things she says just portray her intelligence. She makes you think about life in ways you never have. Rest in power Zahara 💔😭
This Pod is all about giving people their flower. MacG you are great man. You allow people to tell their stories.
Yesss this is y I love this podcast
Thanks to the team for posting this episode for some of us who couldn’t c it yesterday 🙌🏽
It will be like that all the time they promised
That has always been the plan.
OMG I had to come back to this interview and hear again from Zahara, Thank you Mac G. Your work is amazing bro, may her family keep that blue book safe ❤️...... May your soul rest in peace sis❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love how Zahara is so respectful. Calling people Sisi, Bhuti, baba. Very true to who she is 👌🏾
This podcast has become a beacon of hope for young black African creators. I'm forever inspired.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🤞🏾
Man MacG can reveal a hidden side of a human, wish to see him interviewing Cyril Ramaphosa 1 day
Lol Cyril..
so he can ask him who’s the most famous girl he has chowed lol?
Hahahahaha
Eh banna, imagine we find out that cupcake was a d.j & Fresh’s bestie touring with ROCK DA GYELZZ😂😂😂
I sit here thinking 15 grand 🤔 is this the freedom we wanted? We wanted the riches so bad we emulated the very same white people that oppressed us?
when she instantly created a song about the interview... Wow, this lady is gifted💞❤️💞
L'une des plus grandes artistes qu'il m'ait été donné de connaître. Tu était si pure, si belle et si forte. Pendant ma première année d'université à Bouaké, je gérais un cyber et je me souviens que les clients m'ont demandé pour me titiller si j'étais le représentant de Zahara en Côte d'ivoire tant je jouais sa musique. Elle était merveilleuse avec une voix unique. Tu nous manqueras princesse sud-africaine. Tu es partie trop tôt...vraiment trop tôt. 🙏🏾
The way I want this girl to win. I pray she fully heals. Her wounds her deep. I pray that God continues to keep and sustain her. May He give her peace that surpasses understanding. Love you Zahara🌹❤
You should be proud of this comment ❤️❤️❤️
She once came to our house to see this other rapper/producer. She's sweet and respectful. And i reckon there were malicious 3rd forces painting the image of her. Big ups for the success maaaan!
I just watched this episode rn and I gotta say uMam Zahara was such a free soul with such a lovely personality I hope her soul is resting in peace ❤
Big ups to MacG for turning that uncomfortable point around, and for Zahara standing her ground
how does she sing so good with that deep voice? This is my first time getting up-close with her
She probably learned and practised vocal ranges from the choirs ...especially from singing choral music..
Oleseng shupping had a thickest voice and so deep but when he sings it’s something different
Alot of great singers have either deep speaking voices or very hoarse one's!!!
McG does his research properly man. Someone could have done a million interviews before, but when MacG chills with the person, you will get a ton of info you never knew before. Kudos guys!
She has a quality very few people have, the ability to forgive those who wronged her. 👍 Watching from 🇰🇪🇰🇪
Rest in eternal peace Zahara. I had to come back and watch this just honour your beautiful memory. Love frm Zambia
I love Zahara's voice and accent ❣️❣️❣️
Same here , I feel rastafarian vibes there
@@tulitilies she does reggae well
Her accent 🔥🔥🔥
This interview made me fall inlove with Zahara, she definitely is a rare breed and she deserves much more from us and life
when she said "you guys decided i'm an angel" that right there!!! we put celebs in little boxes and then decide they must play by our rules and fit the persona we create for them. These podcasts continue to reveal that
The first time I saw Zahara perform was in royal gardens back in Venda, she was singing ndiza and she was crying I didn't understand the words of the song, but I also had some teardrop, that how powerful Zahara voice is, it is so genuine truly she is God-given gift to South Africa.
What a talent . She’s a complete vibe . Love how she choose to handle issue . All the best to Z
You chillas are snakes 😂😂😂 Kelly Khumalo didn’t want to speak about her private life and everyone went on about how horrible she is to interview
Zahara does the same thing and she gets praised ????
Nigqwirhi marn 🤣🤣🤣
McG did a great job 😃👌🏽
I so much love Sol maturity and level of comprehension... Beautiful interview, Zahara sure is an amazing musician.
This interview is dope and now that she passed on:it is so extremely emotional... She is so much alive, crazy and funny. Rest in power girl 💔💔💔
She was a blessing, She was gifted, she was a gift . She gave us so much Hope. Farewell Zahara
She speaks with a lot of emotion
The first 9 minutes about Zahara and alcohol was too soon man.. Maybe in the middle of the interview or something
agreed
You're right, happy that, mabena did a damage control fast.
@@sibekocbk2934 me too
@DELIGHT CHITINGWIZA definitely
She never saw herself as anything but an instrument and a messenger and got it 100% right. Goodnight Queen ❤
MacG and Sol...thank you for this great interview 😢 South Africa has lost a legend here but thank God for her music and her story 💔. It is true when they say "people will drive you to mental illness". Zahara told her story....you just had to read between the lines of what she really went true.
RIP 🕊️🕯️ZAHARA❤️
She's an artist. Raw, different, sensitive.
For someone that doesn't like being in the limelight, Zahara did well and this was Beautiful interview.
i love how Zahara put him into order, always focusing on people mistake rather then building
This was a tough interview… great job to McG and the team… RIP ZAHARA❤
That moment when Zahara was talking about being in Madiba’s room and he says Madiba looked like he didn’t even know what’s going on 😂🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣😂 gold!
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Macg is in an idiot 😂😂😂😂😂 #simply the best 😂🤣🤣🤣
Ayhh!!😂😂😂😂😂😭😭😭
Everytime Sis Zahara gets emotional, MacG hypes her up with an exciting Question. S/O
This girl was Indigenous Class, Power and Assertive.
Admit it...! 🥺 You were here before she passed on, & now you're here again when she no more. May Her Soul R I P 💔🕊️❤🩹
100% correct. I had to come an re-watch this episode. May Her Soul Rest In Peace 🕊 🙏
😞
She has this innocent thing about her, love how she covered her eyes ka the prince kaybee thing😂😂😂
Haha that is what i noticed about her when i first saw her.
She’s too cute 🖤
I wish South Africans could stop being so vile to celebrities. Zahara seems so sweet but she’s always being bullied by the media & the public
@@keitum There is the reason why, trust me...this interview gives a hint.
I love her Aura, I feel so bad for believing the fake stories about her on social media. She is so special
@@calvinfranklin2927 can you explain your comment further..?
Zahara is such a confident being, she the epitome of growth
This lady is a rare jewel that must be protected by all of us. I pray that she fully heals from her inner pain. God bless you Zahara
After watching this, I love Zahara even more, she is really gifted... when she says ungenaphi, ndingenaphi haha
Regardless of what has happened Zahara has a powerful voice. That can't be taken away. I strongly believe in this nobody can take away your talent. Creating a song in a split of a second. Wow talent
So they only gave her 15k whereas they'd get 100k😥... Woooow
Zahara is so humble it will make u cry❤
The singer gets the last check unless you write , produce, engineer and publish your own music you will always have to pay back the record label and everyone involved in the making of an album before you get your cut!! Most importantly always read your contract and make sure that you use your music as a stepping stone not as your only source of income!! Even American artist had to learn this the hard way!!
Thank you MacG for bringing Zahara on board.Bathong I love her more ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😍
She was full of love,RIP Zahara😢your music healed my soul
Oh my Goodness what a profound young lady. Her levity and insights on industry and life. But that Xhosa charm is strong in her too.
Zahara's voice is everything man, couldn't contain myself everytime she sang😭❤️. Also loving how Macg handled this very challenging interview 🙌
it was well handled i agree
When I learnt of Zahara passing...Had to come back here again...RIP Zahara
macG is so considerate and comfortable makes an interview more like a conversation than an interrogation. this is super authenticcccc
Zahara: "I'm not talented, I'm gifted..."
MacG: "Wow!!! I like that...what does it mean?"
What is it that you like kanti MacG? 😅
MacG is something else, how can you like something you don't know🤷♂️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 true mabena this one, great show though🔥🙌
😂😂😂
Lol maybe he liked the sound of that and therefore was interested in knowing more about I t
Maybe...but he just prematurely got a hyped by something he didn't understand. 🤣
Let's be real. He knew what the words meant from an English perspective but he wanted to know what they really meant from Zahara's perspective.👍🏿👍🏿but the Vendalizer is still crazy 4 though 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Macg "We are alike.......and we both like alcohol" Macg, you can retire now, you a legend.
This Channel in an archieve, a digital museum , some episodes wont reach a million today but they will tomorrow .
The best interview of Podcast and chill by far…Zahara is a star ⭐️
